This is something you would not expect to see and hear. The Oldies were coming back to their tour bus after the sound-and-light show at the Sphinx and Pyramids during their Egypt trip. The show was surprisingly good. It was even better than normal because there was a storm off to the south over the desert and the lightning added some spectacular effects to the show. Anyhow, what did they hear while they were trying to find their bus but the sort of music they had heard the previous fortnight in Scotland. As they got closer and could hear more clearly, what did they see but a genuine Egyptian bagpipe and drum band. They were playing "Scotland the Brave" and they sounded really good. Pharaoh Ptolomey's Pipers maybe?? Travel is always full of surprises.
